"We have stayed at many different places along the coast, and this one is by far our FAVORITE. The house is so thoroughly and thoughtfully furnished, very spacious and well suited for a large family. We had access to everything we needed. The location is ideal. Quiet cul de sac with direct access to the beach … it feels like a private beach. The hot tub was a huge hit … as well as the awesome game console/coffee table. Hours of fun for all ages in our family." – Allison

“Take Me Awave was the perfect getaway for our family! The house was roomy, nicely appointed and comfortable. The walk to the beach was quick and easy thanks to the dune walkover just outside the home. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals ... We loved the different sitting areas on the deck and enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset each day. The kids loved the digital game board in the family room, as well!” – Lori
